Favourite Daughter

Favourite Daughter is a poetry book by an American poet Nancy Huang. The book was published in 2017 by Write Bloody Publishing, a well-known poetry publisher based in LA. The poet is Chinese American, and grew up experiencing two different cultures at home and in the outside world. Hence she says much of her work is themed around the idea of a struggle between two worlds. For her debut book, "Favourite Daughter" we used the notion of Yin and Yang, and the five elements in Chinese cosmology to exprpess her them and her heritage. The colour Red is for Fire&Summer; the colour black is for Water&Winter, representing the two opposite worlds.
